Betrayal Retaliation Money & Revenge

What made the experience of listening to Deadly Stillwater the most enjoyable?

New author (to me), old concept with a new twist. Great characters. Totally took me by surprise.

Have you listened to any of Johnny Peppers’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This is the first time I've listened to Johnny Peppers. I thought he did a good job.

Any additional comments?

This was a totally unexpected surprise. It was on a list of books that I might like based on previous purchases. I usually ignore those because I rarely find anything I like with their suggestions. So this one turned out to be a real page turner. It has Feds gone bad, one is blackmailed by another who served prison time for stealing evidence and selling it. Others antaganists who feel the justice system has done them and their family wrong, and the there is the protagonist (Mac) and his team of Super Cops trying to save the lives of two kidnapped college students who have been buried alive, one who is a diabetic. You know the kidnappers have no intention of letting them go. Wow, this story is put together! Lots of clues along the way, it's a race right up to the last chapter. I really enjoyed this and Highly Recommend it.

This superb thriller series keeps getting better!

The Mac McRyan mystery series (this is Book 3) is a superb police procedural thriller. McRyan's assistant district attorney girlfriend Sally Kennedy played a smaller role in this novel than the prior one. In Deadly Stillwater there is lots of action and near constant suspense as the lives of two kidnapped teenage girls are at risk. The novel is set in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Mac McRyan is a fourth generation cop with a law degree with honors. Book 4, Electing to Murder, is up next.
